As the Defense Department struggles with recruitment to counter their recruitement and retaiment crisis, unlike any time in our history, my congressman Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., has proposed an amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act that would eliminate marijuana testing for military recruits and allow those who had recently used the drug to enlist in the military.
Gaetz said in a statement: “I do not believe that prior use of cannabis should exclude Americans from enlisting in the armed forces. We should embrace them for stepping up to serve our country.”
Personally as a stoner, I'm all for it.
